Dahlia ‘Doris Duke’
Description
The stunning salmon-pink flowers of this beauty look incredible in both the garden border and the vase. While plants are on the shorter side, what they lack in height, they make up for in flower production. Blooms of this variety are more weather-sensitive than most, so harvest when partially open for the longest vase life.
Details
Bloom size: 3 in
Site: full sun
Days to maturity: 80 to 100 days
Plant spacing: 12 to 18 in
Pinch: when 12 in tall
